left front fender
I have a 2013 spyder rt . Tonight I was riding and I notice the left front fender was vibrating. When I got home I could move the fender , the right side was stable. I thought maybe a loose bolt , but its connected to a lot of stuff. surely I'm not the only one thats had this problem

Remove the bolts on the Brackets that attach it to the HUB with the plastic fender ..... lots of small bolts attach that part .... good luck .... Mike

Have you looked for a broken front bracket just above where it bolts to the hub? We've had several break over the years, and the last replacement bracket was a heavier redesign. Previous yrs replaced were 2011 RT, 2015 RT, and 2015 RTS..

As mentioned above, my right front fender brackets both the rear a front broke. Rear bracket broke 2 summers ago and the front bracket broke last summer. I took fender and brackets off and took them to my friends machine shop and had them welded back together. There is only 4 bolts that have to be removed. It is alot easier if you remove tire first. Make sure you unplug fender light before removing fender. Bruce
